Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter

He Shuzhen's expression turned ugly: "Since He Shulan married into the Prince's Mansion, she has become even more disrespectful of others."

Xiaoyu had to remind He Shuzhen: "The eldest lady is now the princess of a county, and her status is noble. Even the concubines in the palace have to give her a cold look when they see her."

He Shuzhen knew this, of course, but the prince only liked the noble concubine Li Wanrong in the mansion, and it was useless no matter how noble her status was. In this life, she snatched He Shulan's good marriage, not only gaining a Liu Chen who doted on her, but also Liu Chen could become an official in the Ministry of Personnel in the future: "Since He Shulan is unwilling to come to the banquet, this banquet is cancelled."

"But you have invited other people and have already notified them. If you suddenly cancel the party, it will offend them."

"It doesn't matter." The He family was of high status, and He Shuzhen had invited the wives of some minor officials, whom she didn't take seriously. If she offended them, she would.

……

The prince opened the wardrobe and took out a yellow pear wood box. He counted the silver bills he took out and found that there were exactly ten thousand taels. He felt so heartbroken that his heart was bleeding. This was his only private money.

Give all the silver to the old lady. For the next period of time, not only can you not hang out with friends, but you can also not go to restaurants to eat delicacies.

The prince handed the banknotes in his hand to the servant beside him and said, "Send them to the old lady's yard."

Li Wanrong, who was not far away, ran over and snatched the banknote from the servant's hand: "You are the prince of the Prince's Mansion. Can't you make the decision if I spend some money?"

"I'm paying off your debt, don't be ungrateful." The prince was upset that the banknotes were gone. At this time, Li Wanrong came to find fault. He didn't want to explain too much, so he snatched the banknotes from Li Wanrong's hand and handed them to the servant: "Hurry and send them over."

Li Wanrong realized that she had just lost her composure, and stepped forward to hug the Prince: "The money from the shop every month is all subsidized to the Prince's Mansion, and there is no surplus. I want to save some money and open a restaurant, so that we don't have to live so tightly."

There are many restaurants in the capital, but the prince is not very interested: "Don't worry about opening a restaurant, just take good care of the store."

Li Wanrong didn't want to let go just like that. She had had enough of having to look at other people's faces. "I've been planning for a long time. The restaurant I opened is different from other restaurants. It will definitely be successful in the capital."

The prince was curious: "What's the difference?"

"The restaurant I opened not only offers dining, but also entertainment, dance, and foot massage. The accommodation is built in the woods or on a cliff."

The prince instantly became interested: "Such a restaurant is indeed very attractive, but there is no large forest in the capital for you to build a house, let alone a cliff."

"I plan to build the restaurant in the suburbs."

The prince was silent for a while: "It is not safe to build it in the suburbs. It is easy to be targeted by bandits."

"What are you afraid of? When the time comes, you can just send troops to garrison there." Li Wanrong, who lived in a peaceful era, had never experienced turmoil. Those bandits, for the sake of money, would not only rob, but might even kill.

The prince thought about it and thought that it shouldn't be a problem to open a restaurant at the foot of the wall of the capital and send soldiers to guard it: "But do you have the money to open a restaurant?"

Li Wanrong looked at the prince with a sly smile: "We can owe the construction money first, and then pay it back after the restaurant opens and makes money."

The prince was incredulous: "How did you come up with this idea? What if the restaurant business is not good and we can't pay back the money?"

"Bah, bah, you're saying something so discouraging before the event even starts. The restaurant I opened is unique in the capital, so it will definitely not have bad business."

The prince expressed doubts about Li Wanrong's ability, but he didn't want to dampen her enthusiasm: "Let's talk about opening a restaurant later. We don't have any money now."

Li Wanrong wanted to continue persuading him. It would take time for the prince to accept such a large sum of money at once. "Okay, we'll talk about this later."

……

The servant gave the silver note to the old lady.

The old lady handed the banknote to He Shulan.

He Shulan refused: "The profit from the store every month is enough to cover the expenses of the mansion."

"Take it if I give it to you." The old lady stuffed the banknote into He Shulan's hand and said, "The power to manage the Prince's Mansion will fall into your hands sooner or later."

Having said that, He Shulan no longer refused, took the banknote and returned to the yard.

Thinking about attending the birthday banquet of the Crown Prince's Grand Tutor's daughter-in-law tomorrow, he opened the warehouse to choose a gift. After choosing for a long time, he picked out a pair of top-quality mutton-fat jade bracelets.

The early morning sun rose from the east, and He Shulan supported Chunxia's hand and got up from the bed.

She couldn't wear anything too flashy or too plain to attend a birthday party, so she chose a dark blue floral dress with a short coat, and tied up her long black hair with a golden hairpin.

Qiu Dong picked up the gold jewelry in the box and put it on He Shulan's head: "It's too plain to dress up simply in the Prince's Mansion. It's nothing to do. It's too plain to wear only a golden hairpin to attend the banquet."

He Shulan did not refuse. She packed up and walked out of the mansion. When she reached the garden, she met the Prince and Li Wanrong.

Li Wanrong blocked He Shulan's way and said, "It's so early in the morning, and the Princess of the County is dressed so beautifully. Who are you going to meet?"

Chun Xia was furious after hearing this. She was implying that He Shulan had a secret meeting with another man and she had succeeded in sowing discord between them in front of the prince.

The Prince's Mansion was afraid that it could not accommodate the Princess. Regardless of whether the Prince would punish her, they sternly rebuked Li Wanrong, "Li Wanrong, you are so bold to speak to the Princess like that."

Li Wanrong didn't care at all: "It's not the first day I've been so bold."

"You..." Chunxia wanted to argue, but was stopped by He Shulan.

The prince only has Li Wanrong in his heart. Even if He Shulan is as clean as a white lotus, the prince will not even look at her: "I'm going to attend the birthday banquet of the prince's grand tutor's daughter-in-law."

The prince thought of the rumors that he favored Aunt Li, and was afraid that He Shulan would be laughed at by the noble ladies in the capital: "Do you need me to take you there?"

Before He Shulan could answer, Li Wanrong answered first: "Yes, I want to go to the birthday banquet with the Princess."

"Why?" The prince remembered that Li Wanrong hated attending such banquets the most because there were not only many rules but also a lot of gossip.

Li Wanrong leaned close to the prince's ear and said, "Yesterday I mentioned to you about building a restaurant, and you forgot. I will go and build a good relationship with the noble ladies in the capital. When the restaurant opens, I will ask them to patronize it. They are big customers."

The prince shook his head helplessly: "I haven't thought about building a restaurant yet. You can only deal with them. Don't mention building a restaurant for the time being."

"Okay." Li Wanrong responded happily and watched the prince leave.
